Are individuals with a restraining order eligible for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. Yes, if the order has expired

  2. No, they are permanently disqualified

  3. Yes, after a certain period post-order expiration

  4. No, not while the order is in effect

The correct answer is: No, not while the order is in effect

Individuals with a restraining order are not eligible for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit while the order is in effect. This is because individuals with active restraining orders are considered to pose a potential risk, and therefore, are not allowed to obtain a CHP. It is important to prioritize safety concerns and prevent individuals who may be involved in legal disputes or pose a threat from carrying concealed handguns.
